He had exhausted himself searching for the medicine, how could he possibly give up now?
Once he brings the medicine-using person and removes their heart, Your Highness will have no choice but to use it.
Their prince was taught by the Grand Tutor, who was benevolent to the world and loved all people.
Even if they appear cold and ruthless on the outside, they are actually soft-hearted.
By the time the heart of the person who was drugged was removed, the person was already beyond saving.
Even if Your Highness tries to escape reality, you certainly won't let that person sacrifice themselves in vain.
As long as their prince uses this heart, he will have to accept this favor, whether he likes it or not.
In the eyes of the world, he was the greatest contributor to the Xuancang Dynasty and the greatest contributor to curing His Highness.
Forget about arranged marriages, forget about that damned tutor, get as far away from me as possible.
At that time, he will be second only to the emperor, above all others.
At that time, he had nothing he wanted.
snort.
Let them be smug for a while.
Old Zhou came to his senses and saw the two people still kneeling at his feet, trembling.
Seeing their pathetic state made me furious.
He said menacingly, "Go and accept your punishment, huh? Get out of here."
The two men were momentarily alarmed when they saw Old Zhou's terrifying appearance.
Isn't Elder Zhou the kindest person?
How did things become so terrible after I went out for a while!
Although the two men felt something was amiss, they dared not beg for mercy and scrambled away as fast as they could.
They had a feeling that receiving punishment would be a hundred times easier than facing Old Zhou.
Old Zhou glanced in the direction of the main hall, then returned to his residence.
"How is that person now?"
Old Zhou stood by the window with his hands behind his back and asked coldly.
No sooner had he finished speaking than a man in black emerged from the shadows and knelt on the ground.
His voice was a little hoarse, but his tone was very respectful, and he seemed to be a little afraid.
"Reporting to Master, the medicine man has left the Sumeru Continent, and our people have lost track of him."
After saying this, the man in black immediately lay down on the ground, not daring to breathe.
His forehead was even covered in a thick layer of cold sweat, which showed how afraid he was at that moment.
Upon hearing this, Old Zhou's expression changed, and he turned to stare at the back of the man in black's head.
"You bastard, why didn't you tell me about something this big sooner?"
When did they leave? How come there's been no word from them at all?
You're all useless and good-for-nothings. What's the point of keeping you around?
"I'm so angry! Why didn't you tell me about something so important sooner?"
After finishing speaking, Teacher Zhou kicked the man in black without any mercy.
As the movement ended, the sound of a strong wind blew around.
He used five parts of his internal force in that kick.
The man in black was immediately kicked several meters away, lying on the ground in a sorry state, spitting out two mouthfuls of blood. He lost all his energy and quickly became weak.
But he still dared not beg for mercy.
"Speak! Are you mute?"
Old Zhou seemed oblivious to the man in black's disheveled state, and continued to angrily question him.
The man in black endured the pain and immediately raised his sleeve to wipe the blood from his mouth.
His voice was even hoarser when he spoke, and his tone trembled slightly.
"Reporting to Master, they have been gone for many days. We are afraid that our people will be discovered by the people guarding the Sumeru Continent."
Therefore, they have always kept their whereabouts hidden on the Sumeru Continent, not daring to show themselves in the open.
At first they took the main road, and our men followed them from the shadows. Later, they seemed to have discovered us.
They deliberately circled around several hilltops, and then disappeared through a dense forest.
"Then why didn't you tell me at the time?" Old Zhou was so angry that he swept the teacup off the table with his sleeve.
The man in black prostrated himself on the ground, saying fearfully, "Reporting to Master, when you brought Zixuan back before, you were seriously injured because you used a secret technique and went into seclusion to recuperate. You specifically instructed us not to disturb you."
I intended to inform you immediately after you came out of the pass, but when you did, you went straight to the palace gate..."
The man in black was interrupted by Old Zhou waving his hand as he finished speaking.
"Alright, you're all a bunch of good-for-nothings. I've been feeding you with rare and precious treasures all the time."
They say you raise an army for a thousand days to use it for one, and this is the explanation you give me? Well done!
"Why aren't you checking right now? Where are they?"
"Summon all our people from the Sumeru Continent back to the capital and send them to search for the whereabouts of the Medicine Man."
At this point, Old Zhou angrily added a sentence.
"If you can't find them, you don't need to come back."
The man in black became even more terrified upon hearing this, and shivered in fear.
"Thank you for the opportunity, Master. I will definitely find out their whereabouts."
If they don't come back, they're doomed.
The man in black felt bitter inside.
They were brought back when they were toddlers and trained as bodyguards from a young age.
When Old Zhou brought them back, he made them eat a secret poison.
Every month, Old Zhou would give them an antidote, which would ensure that they would not be poisoned again that month.
If they don't get the antidote for three consecutive months, they will only face death.
Therefore, if their whereabouts cannot be found, they have at most three months to live.
Old Zhou turned and glanced at the sky outside the window. The sky was overcast and gloomy, with no sunlight in sight.
The world is about to change.
"Spread the word. There is a medicine man on the Sumeru Continent. Drinking his blood can bring the dead back to life, and eating his heart can grant immortality."
The man in black was somewhat surprised, as the medicine man was clearly the best divine medicine that his master had personally painstakingly cultivated.
That's meant to be used to treat His Highness's illness.
To keep a low profile and avoid being discovered, the master stopped interfering in the affairs of the dynasty, and over time, people forgot about his existence.
Only in this way can he train medicine people on the Sumeru Continent without any scruples.
Now, why should we proactively spread the news?
The man in black was filled with doubt, but he still responded in a low voice.
Whatever the master says goes.
Old Zhou narrowed his eyes and instructed again, "While spreading the news, also spread their location. They are on the Sumeru Continent, in the Sumeru Dynasty."
Since they plan to leave, it means they have the confidence to protect the Sumeru Continent.
However, it is unclear whether the medicine man is accompanied by the Dragon Guard, Phoenix Guard, or Divine Guard, and which force is guarding the Sumeru Continent.
However, once the news spread, people naturally started looking for information for him.
After Elder Zhou issued this order, the man in black immediately understood Elder Zhou's intention.
He obeyed the order and quickly retreated, supporting himself as he did so.
If this fails again, the consequences will be worse than death.
If there is no antidote, it would be better if he died suddenly that same month.
The key is that this secret poison requires three doses to kill.
This means they have to experience every single second of the poison taking effect.
Moreover, with this kind of poison, you will only feel continuous pain, and you can't die even if you want to.
No one could bear that kind of terrifying state of being neither dead nor alive.
The entire dynasty spoke of the master's benevolence, but only they knew the methods he used to torment a person.
